The answer is:  3 He has a patriarchal point of view.

In the excerpt from "Antigone," by Sophocles, Creon expresses that the social  system must be controlled and preserved by men. He also underestimates the authority of women and does not think women should rule. As a consequence, he suggests that society must be dominated by the power exercised by the masculine genre.

The correct answer is 3. He has a patriarchal point of view

Explanation:

In the excerpt presented from the Greek play "Antigone" Creon who in the play is the one that rules the city of Thebes states, he would prefer to be expelled by the men of the society than letting a woman be an equal or a competitor for the power. This implies Creon does not want any women in the power taking decisions or that a woman can take the power he owns and instead he prefers to be expelled and abandon the city. This perspective from Creon is consistent with the meaning of patriarchy as in the patriarchy the men are the ones in the power and the ones that take decisions, while women are excluded and limited to minor roles. This also means someone with a patriarchal point of view believes men should be the ones in charge in the society and not women which reflect the way Creon thinks. Thus, the lines show Creon "has a patriarchal point of view" as he cannot imagine a woman can take the power position he has.
